Description Steve Dickson 2016-08-01 16:01:49 UTC 
+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #1362201 +++

Description of problem:
Changing RPCBIND_ARGS in /etc/sysconfig/rpcbind results in startup failures for rpcbind.

Version-Release number of selected component: rpcbind-0.2.3-10.rc1.fc24.x86_64


Steps to Reproduce:
1. Modify the contents of /etc/sysconfig/rpcbind here is an example line that fails:

  RPCBIND_ARGS="-l -h 10.1.10.2"
 
2. Attempt to restart rpcbind.  Start will fail

   systemctl restart rpcbind


Actual results:

Jul 31 21:22:06 mirth.inuus.com rpcbind[3781]: /sbin/rpcbind: invalid option -- ' '
Jul 31 21:22:06 mirth.inuus.com rpcbind[3781]: usage: rpcbind [-adhilswf]


Expected results:

Successful startup of rpcbind with arguments


Additional info:

It appears that removing the braces from the ${RPCBIND_ARGS} in /usr/lib/systemd/system/rpcbind.service fixes this issue.  This appears to be what other services use.
